We are thrilled to announce that Ariv, a talented young chess prodigy, has achieved an extraordinary milestone by becoming the National Champion in both the Blitz (K-6) and Classical (Grade Level) tournaments, organized by the prestigious US Chess Federation. This remarkable achievement not only highlights Ariv’s unwavering dedication but also shines a spotlight on the immense potential of young minds when nurtured with the right guidance and support.

Adding to this incredible success, Ariv has also been selected to represent the U.S. National Team for 2025-an honor reserved for the best of the best in the chess world. This recognition further cements Ariv’s position as a rising star in the competitive chess landscape.

Proud at Mind Mentorz for this victory of their own student Ariv. Indeed it goes through hard work, strategic planning and the courage with which it is built with the quality of guidance and training acquired while at our academy.

A tale of Dedication and Excellence

Ariv’s journey through the chess arena is nothing less than inspirational. His success in Blitz (K-6) demonstrates that he can think at high speeds and make moves within those constraints, something very few players can manage to do. Blitz chess requires both the player’s knowledge of the game as well as staying cool-headed and thinking about three moves ahead in less than a second.

Meanwhile, his victory in the Classical (Grade Level) tournament speaks volumes about the deep strategic understanding and the ability to think critically over prolonged games. He is an exponent of the classical game that requires stamina, patience, and the ability to assess positions, which Ariv has done with brilliance. The twin victories speak volumes about his versatility and adaptability-a true chess champion par excellence.

The Road Ahead: Representative of the U.S. National Team

Being a member of the U.S. A National Team for 2025 would be a huge achievement for Ariv and a dream of many young chess players. With it comes the chance to compete against the world’s best, hone his skills even further, and represent the nation in international competitions. Being a part of the national team, Ariv will also be an ambassador for his talent and hard work and dedication which goes into mastering the game of chess.

Why Chess Matters for Young Minds

Chess is more than just a game; it’s something to be used as an aid for developing critical life skills.

The game can teach one discipline, focus, and thinking ahead—all so important, both on and off the board.
